Realtime Chartbook Sharing

Introduction

Real-time Chartbook sharing is a feature, allowing a user to share one of their Chartbooks in real time with other users. It is also possible to share Chartbooks, with yourself in other instances of Sierra Chart.

A Chartbook can be shared with one user, or multiple users. Sharing can be public or private. A Chartbook which is privately shared, requires that the user sharing the Chartbook specifies the other Sierra Chart usernames of who can access the Chartbook. A Chartbook which is shared publicly, can be accessed by any user who wishes to subscribe to the Chartbook.

Notes

When sharing a Chartbook, the color settings for the chart are set to use the charts own graphics and color settings if the chart was not previously. These graphics settings are set through Chart >> Graphics Settings - Chart. If the chart was previously using the Global Graphics and Color settings, then those Global Graphics and Color settings are copied to the chart first and then the chart is set to use its own graphics and color settings which then match the Global settings.

For more information, refer to Graphics Settings.

When sharing a Chartbook, you can share Trading levels by using the Trading Levels - Local study.
